If there is already something posted on this subject can you point me to the links.
I have just set up a feed reader to my PC and have already put the hurricane feeds in. Are there any other weather feeds that people can recomend.
What I am looking for are links to severe weather anywhere in the world so that I can do some armchair chasing.
Thanks

This thread (http://stormtrack.org/forum/viewtopic.php?...8&highlight=rss (http://stormtrack.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4688&highlight=rss)) asked about storm chaser's blogs using RSS, but didn't get an overwhelming response. I imagine that a lot of bloggers have the capability (it's built-in to most decent blogging services/software) but that they don't know what it is or what it's about.
NOAA seems to be figuring out how valuable RSS can be:

http://www.spc.noaa.gov/aboutrss.html
This shows other NOAA feeds that may be of interest to you and describes how one can make RSS feeds from Yahoo on any topic of interest to you:
http://www.lib.noaa.gov/docs/news/rss.html
If you suspect a site might have RSS feeds, you can try Googling:
rss site:ucar.edu
(for example, to see if that specific site has the term anywhere)
I think we'll see more and more of this as people recognize its usefulness.
